“Probably one of the grittiest and most in your face bands that I’ve seen this year and honestly since I’ve been in Manchester.” - RGM

“Their ability to own the stage and work a crowd while delivering an even sharper, ballsier live sound is remarkable.” - LOUDER THAN WAR

The trailblazing pioneers of thought-provoking music, are thrilled to announce the release of their highly anticipated new single, Thirst. With a sharp lyrical focus and an undeniable intellectual depth, the song encapsulates the pressing issues surrounding human apathy and the erosion of societal structures.

ABOUT PAVÉ

This Manchester Based band is led by Alanya-Jade on vocals, Kevin on guitar, Jack on bass, and Ben on drums. Pavé showcases comparable energy reminiscent of genre-bending misfits like Bad Omens, Yonaka, Bring Me The Horizon, and Royal Blood. Despite their debut performance at Manchester's Gorilla coming just days before the first national lockdown, their persistence to make their mark is paying off, as the band sold out their debut Manchester headline show at The Castle, were selected by THE HARA as support on the Manchester date of their 2022 UK tour and have received immense support from the likes of: The MANC, RGM, THE BBC, CLASH MAGAZINE, and PLANET ROCK. The demand for more is clear from fans; PAVÉ’s second single of 2023 reached 31k Spotify streams and 6k YouTube views in its first month.

Thirst, delves into the unsettling reality that beneath the facade of compassion, lies a deep-rooted self-serving nature guiding our decisions. In a world seemingly preoccupied with shallow self-interests, Pavé unflinchingly confronts the paradox of humanity's professed care juxtaposed with our true motivations and through a captivating blend of immersive lyrics and heavy sonic textures, Thirst serves as a poignant wake-up call, urging listeners to challenge societal norms and strive for positive change. 

Writer and Guitarist, Kevin, provides profound insights into the overarching theme of Thirst, explaining, "We find ourselves blissfully unaware of the profound impact our actions have on our surroundings. Our pursuit of escape, whether physical or mental, often leads us right into another culture of imposed restrictions and societal norms."

Alanya explains, “With our name Inspired by the French Revolution, "Pavé" symbolizes rebellion, freedom, and fighting for beliefs, a message we strive to embody through our music, shows and community. Music provides the power of freedom of speech without limits.” Thirst explores these theories and their impact, reflecting on the downfall of such structures.

‘Thirst’ is slated for release on June 23rd, 2023
